67november Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 I have to agree with some of you that the ground contact was not intentional. :down: I'd say the landing gear took one h*ll of a beating on that stupid stunt, and that no one was hurt was a very good thing, I think the pilot was lucky that he didn't bury a skid a contact.

Skidmark Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 Well Beltdrive, thank you. I guess i owe you a beer if we ever cross paths. Your video helped me get a bunch of idiots off my back here in camp. They've been bugging me all week for a hammerhead. The video seemed to shut them up. Take care SM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skidmark Posted July 7, 2005 Report Share Posted July 7, 2005 I thought the last words were, Oh Sh*t. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skidz Posted July 8, 2005 Report Share Posted July 8, 2005 I think that with most operators, doing hammerheads upwind or downwind is equally likely to have a negative impact on your career... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
